Popis: A relatively new and increasingly popular method of urban pavement construction involves the application of cement slurry as an additive to soil and/or aggregates to improve the engineering properties of these materials. The purpose of this research was to identify and document best practices related to cement slurry application with ready-mixed concrete trucks as utilized on urban pavement construction projects. The methodology for this research involved field visits to pavement construction sites in northern Utah where active cement slurry applications could be observed. The results of this work provide valuable guidance that is expected to accelerate training of both drivers and construction workers who are involved in cement slurry projects.
